Modifying NetWare Print Services
NetWare print services has a dialog for each of the three types of printing
objects: Print Queue, Printer, and Print Server.
You access printing objects using the same method used for other objects in
the browser.
If you specify changes in several pages and decide you do not want to keep
some of the changes, remember the following:
1 You must manually delete unwanted information from the fields.
2 If you choose “Cancel,” you can choose whether you want to save changes. If you
choose not to save changes, you’ll lose the changes you want to keep in the other
pages.
WARNING: Because the pages are all part of one dialog, do not choose “OK” or “Cancel”
until you are finished with all pages and are ready to close the object dialog.
Like other NetWare Directory Services leaf objects, you can move, delete, or
rename printing objects.
You cannot copy NetWare Directory Services objects, but you can create
aliases to reference objects in other contexts. See “Creating Leaf Objects” in
Chapter 1 of Supervising the Network or “Alias Object” in Concepts.
Moving Printing Objects
To move an object, select the object in the browser and choose “Move” from
the “Object” menu, or hold down <Ctrl> while dragging a leaf object and
dropping it onto another container.
When an object is moved, the name is changed to reflect the new context.
Moving an object is like changing part of the object’s complete name or like
changing its context.
When you move an object, all references and assignments to the object are
automatically changed as well.
